Does The Liver Function Test Report Indicate Any Disease?

My age is 33, and height is 5 feet and 8 inches and weight 58 kgs. I did Liver Function Test in which direct bilirubin was .58mg/dl indirect bilirubin was 1.52. SGOT ( AST) was 29U/L, SGOT ( ALT) was 25 U/L, Alkaline Phosphatase was 205 U/L and GGT was 17U/L.

I have slightly increased liver size and down ward displacement of liver.

Am I suffering from Hepatitis or Jaundice?

Hi I have gone through your query....

In hepatitis liver enzymes are high....
Your liver enzymes are within normal limit that is below 42....
So hepatitis is less likely....

Here indirect bilirubin elevated....
So more likely possibility is hemolytic or prehepatic jaundice ....
For that peripheral smear examination and retic count plus LDH estimation done....
Urine hematuria also tested.

If needed for hemoglobinopathy electrophoresis might needed.

Meanwhile take low fat diet and more fruits
Sugar cane juice helpful...

Take care....
